FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY (A novel idea)
Why don’t we as a nation rise up and fix the obvious problem? We are in debt. We are taxed on average more than 50 cents on every dollar we earn. We cannot tax our way out of debt. We have to bring discipline into the spending equation. Cut the National budget deficit to zero today. Just spend less than the tax income. This is the principle that leads to individual security and freedom. When our leadership example is a debt, more debt example how can we expect the people to change? If we want to rebuild the nation, we must become fiscally responsible. Just saying we will reduce the deficit is not good enough. Eliminate the deficit and begin paying off the debt. Become a nation with no debt. The people will rally around this principle. We will be able to take care of the needy in the private sector. Why not have a government that does the things it is supposed to do. Build roads and dams and infrastructure. Maintain a low level of social chaos. A police force that enforces a simple set of laws. And, a military force that protects our borders.
